Geologic map of Georgia (U.S. state) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Geologic map of Georgia (U.S. state)
The geologic map of Georgia (a state within the United States) is a special-purpose map made to show geological features. Rock units or geologic strata are shown by colors or symbols to indicate where they are exposed at the surface. Structural features such as faults and shear zones are also shown. Since the first national geological map, in 1809, there have been numerous maps which included the geology of Georgia. The first Georgia specific geologic map was created in 1825. The most recent state-produced geologic map of Georgia, by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources is 1:500,000 scale, and was created in 1976 by the department's Georgia Geological Survey. It was generated from a base map produced by the United States Geological Survey. The state geologist and Director of the Geological Survey of Georgia was Sam M. Pickering, Jr.〔(Society for Mining, Metallurgy & Exploration - Distinguished Service Award to Sam M. Pickering, Jr. )〕 Since 1976, several geological maps of Georgia, featuring the state's five distinct geologic regions, have been produced by the federal government. ==History of geologic mapping in Georgia==
